The award highlights Safe Software's strong partnership with Oracle and their contributions to the Oracle Spatial community, demonstrated by their consistent support for Oracle Spatial technologies and early adoption of new features such as raster and 3D.

It featured a monochrome 320 x 240 square-dot display and relatively advanced video features such as a purely bitmapped display, allowing a customizable character set, the mixing text and graphics on the same screen, and raster operations like continuous smooth panning and scrolling.

Because the FITS data format is not a raster format, but has a much larger dynamic range of values that can be analyzed, it is possible to scale our view of the full collected data and overcome the limits of standard photographic techniques.

Flip wrote some kind of program in Mathematica which is probably trying to display a rotated raster, but he made a mistake in his code, which correctly caused Mathematica to display this error message.

In addition to bringing raster-based data into NetLogo models (such as using USGS elevation data in this Grand Canyon model that Eric previously contributed to) the extension allows for import of vector data in the form of shapefiles.
